Abstract

These geodes occur in Lime Creek shales. They are rather unusual in containing a number of roundish cavities rather than the customary rough opening. The cavities are lined with: 1. small rhombic calcite crystals which are bronzed with limonite; 2. occasional tabular and fan-shaped aggregates of barite crystals. The mode of formation is obscure.
